out of the museum and into the outside world. modern land art movement really got going in the 1960s when american artists began creating land art on a large scale. today, works of modern land art can be seen all over the world, sometimes right alongside much older pieces of land art created by people who lived thousands of years ago.land art, which is not necessarily unchangeable, can take a number of forms. for example, in 1970 robert smithson created the spiral jetty (螺旋状防波堤), made of a collection of stones and mud，in the great salt lake. the american artist made a large jetty in a spiral shape which sticks out into the waters of the lake.reshaping the landscape is a common characteristic of land art, which can be created by moving parts around. people can also add things to the environment to create land art, like salt, which is added to the spiral jetty. it is possible to use plants. in all cases, land art is immovable.land art is designed to gradually form, change, and eventually decay (衰落). thats one of the biggest differences between land art and most of the art one sees in the museums. some works of art can exist only for a few hours or days. others are exposed to rain and wind so that they develop and decay over time，which is part of the attractiveness in the eyes of the artists.篇章导读：本文为说明文。全文简要介绍了一种不同于传统博物馆室内艺术的室外艺术形式地景艺术。文章介绍了它的起源、发展及艺术特点等信息。4what can be

you，but rather，take a moment to consider whether the criticism is at all accurate”可知，空处应讲给自己一个机会真正吸收这些信息并对其进行评估。故f项符合语境。3c根据该段小标题“avoid unnecessary conflict”可知，c项“但是最好避免陷入争吵”符合语境。4a根据空后的“and it may be because of a concept called cognitive dissonance that can prevent us from changing even when thats what we need most.”表述原因可知，设空处应填相应的结果，再结合本段小标题可判断，a项“我们大部分人都很固执”符合语境。5g根据空后的“your emotions will be running high, and you may not be particularly receptive to extra information.”并结合上文可知，空处应讲最开始听到批评时不适合问更多的细节，故g项符合语境。.语法填空china to promote traditional opera in schoolschinas central government has

schools, secondary schools, colleges, universities这四个名词作并列的主语。2to watch考查非谓语动词。opportunity后常接不定式作后置定语，表示“做的机会”。3issued考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知，空处为非谓语动词作定语；issue与a guideline是被动关系，所以用issue的过去分词作后置定语。4an考查冠词。根据语境可知，此处表示泛指；又因为opera的发音是以元音音素开头，故填an。5will be考查动词的时态。根据本句中的时间状语“in 2020”可知，空处应用一般将来时。6it考查代词。此处应用it指代the guideline。7investment考查词性转换。分析句子结构可知，此处用名词作encourages的宾语，encourage investment意为“鼓励；投资”。8with考查with复合结构。根据语境并分析句子结构可知，此处为with复合结构，其中the most famous作宾语补足语。9are listed考查动词的时态和语态。根据语境可知，京剧和昆曲被联合国教科文组织列为非物质文化遗产，所以空处用被动语态
